Topic : Domestic Violence – Danger At Home
Anchor : Aamir Khan
Channel : Star Plus
Description : For countless women, entering married life often means the beginning of a stressful, violent existence. Beating one’s wife seems to be ingrained in many men’s mindsets as the appropriate behaviour for a strong male, but the consequences are misery for the wife and children, and often a broken, unhappy home. The concept of domestic violence is based on the notion of patriarchy, which needs to be converted into equality.
Aamir Khan On May 20, the third episode of Aamir Khan’s New TV Show Satyamev Jayate aired on television. Topic for 3rd episode was “Big Fat Indian Wedding”. Most people dream of a lavish wedding but the reality in India is that expensive wedding celebrations and heavy dowry demands end up making brides’ lives miserable and ruining their families. The very concept of marriage has been turned into a transaction, with no value placed on the people or the relationship. But this can change, and it is up to girls and their families to
say NO to dowry, to insist on simple ceremonies and restore the sanctity of the wedding bond. The SMS Question which Aamir Khan asks in this episode is – “Do you think marriages have become a business transaction in our country today?”
